This is the story of an oak forest, right from where it’s born. The story of a landscape. It’s a long thread, but think about this first: The oaks that I’ll show you here might even live to be over 200 years old. Got 10 minutes? #2020forest
It was the Autumn of 2019, the last autumn before the pandemic. But at that time we we didn’t really know it. I got my bike and crossed the border at Ibardin, then making my way down the mountain pass towards Urruña, in the french part of the Basque Country.
My idea was to get to Biriatu, then continuing up the Bidasoa river to get back to Bera, my village.
